Everyday does not go without the doom and gloom behind news media centralized on our nations financial conditions. I cannot tell you how many times I heard the term fiscal cliff in a span of 4 months and still counting, I am running out of fingers and toes. I ask myself why does all this doom and gloom crappy news sell or for that matter why do people want to hear it? I even got a random email from a coworker who could care less about his finances or being responsible with money, asking me what I thought of the fiscal cliff. I gave my explanation to him that it’s all hoopla based primarily on the elections. But that still doesn’t even begin to answer the question; why is there so much doom and gloom coming from all the media outlets and why do people care to hear it.
